About the Location:
Apsarkonda Beach, a hidden gem located near Honnavar in Uttara Kannada, Karnataka, is an emerging tourist village with fewer tourists and clean beach known for its natural beauty. Located just 8 km from the Honnavar bus stand, it offers a serene escape for travelers seeking quietness and scenic landscapes. This secluded beach, overlooking the Arabian Sea, offers a breathtaking blend of golden sands, lush cliffs, and Serene waters. With the added charm of waterfalls, ancient temples, and Pandava caves nearby, this hidden paradise is perfect for a family or Group Camping.

Self-Camping at this Location:
Apsarakonda Beach is a fantastic location for boondocking, offering plenty of open space near the cliffs and greenery. The secluded nature of the beach ensures minimal disturbances, making it ideal for overnight camping. Pitch your tent or Set up your Car camping, along the tree-lined edges for shade and privacy, and enjoy the rhythmic sounds of waves as you unwind under a starlit sky. However, camping directly on the sand is not recommended due to high tides and deep waters, as the beach has a steep gradient leading into the water, making swimming and driving here unsafe.
Located just off National Highway NH 66, the beach is easily accessible, but the final stretch is a narrow single-lane road with no space to maneuver, so if you’re driving a four-wheeler, be prepared for a tricky reverse if needed. There are no eateries, shops, or food stalls near the beach, though the main road is nearby. Expect nothing but raw, untouched nature, there is no commercial activity here, and it’s best that it stays this way to preserve its untouched charm.
